3/10
Muddled And Confused
27 December 2007
Warning: Spoilers
*Soul SPOILERS*

On their way home from a rave, friends Cassie (Melissa Sagebrecht), Matt (Wes Bentley), Annabel (Eliza Dushku) and Sean (Casey Affleck) get in a terrible accident.

Sean dies, and the other three try to get on with their life. Cassie, though, begins to experience mysterious phenomenons, like seeing and hearing Sean, mysterious dreams, and a lot of confusion...

This movie stood on Artisan's shelf for more than a year, and after having watched it, I can understand why; the actors do their best (which in case of newcomer Sagebrecht really isn't much), but the script, which tries for a 'Carnival Of Souls' - 'Jacob's Ladder' thriller, is way too muddled, having the ending being both obvious and confusing (quite a task!).

Nothing to say about the directing if not that it's the most anonymous this side of Alan Smithee.

End line - this movie is boring. Handle with care.

Soul Survivors: 3/10.
